SEC. 932. REPORT ON COORDINATION OF ACCESS OF COMMANDERS AND
DEPLOYED UNITS TO INTELLIGENCE COLLECTED AND ANALYZED BY THE
INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) Coordination of operational intelligence support for the
commanders of the combatant commands and deployed units of the Armed
Forces has proven to be inadequate.
(2) Procedures used to reconcile information among various
intelligence community and Department of Defense data bases have proven
to be inadequate and, being inadequate, have diminished the usefulness
of that information and have precluded commanders and planners within
the Armed Forces from fully benefiting from key information that should
have been available to them.
(3) Excessive compartmentalization of responsibilities and
information within the Department of Defense and the other elements of
the intelligence community has resulted in inaccurate analysis of
important intelligence material.
(4) Excessive restrictions on the distribution of information within
the executive branch have disadvantaged units of the Armed Forces that
would have benefited most from the information.
(5) Procedures used in the Department of Defense to ensure that
critical intelligence information is provided to the right combat units
in a timely manner failed during the Persian Gulf War and, as a result,
information about potential chemical weapons storage locations did not
reach the units that eventually destroyed those storage areas.
(6) A recent, detailed review of the events leading to and following
the destruction of chemical weapons by members of the Armed Forces at
Khamisiyah, Iraq, during the Persian Gulf War has revealed a number of
inadequacies in the way the Department of Defense and the other elements
of the intelligence community handled, distributed, recorded, and stored
intelligence information about the threat of exposure of United States
forces to chemical weapons and the toxic agents in those weapons.
(7) The inadequacy of procedures for recording the receipt of, and
reaction to, intelligence reports provided by the intelligence community
to combat units of the Armed Forces during the Persian Gulf War has
caused it to be impossible to analyze the failures in transmission of
intelligence-related information on the location of chemical weapons at
Khamisiyah, Iraq, that resulted in the demolition of chemical weapons by
members of the Armed Forces unaware of the hazards to which they were
exposed.
(b) Report Requirement.--Not later than March 1, 1998, the Secretary
of Defense shall submit to Congress a report that identifies the
specific actions that have been taken or are being taken to ensure that
there is adequate coordination of access of commanders of the combatant
commands and deployed units of the Armed Forced to intelligence
collected and analyzed by the intelligence community.
SEC. 933. PROTECTION OF IMAGERY, IMAGERY INTELLIGENCE, AND
GEOSPATIAL INFORMATION AND DATA.

``, or capabilities,'' after ``methods''.
(b) Products Protected.--(1) Paragraph (2) of such section is amended

SEC. 1227. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON NEED FOR RUSSIAN OPENNESS ON
THE YAMANTAU MOUNTAIN PROJECT.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds as follows:
(1) The United States and Russia have been working since the end of
the Cold War to achieve a strategic relationship based on cooperation
and openness between the two nations.
(2) This effort to establish a new strategic relationship between
the two nations has resulted in the conclusion or agreement in principle
on a number of far-reaching agreements, including START I, II, and III,
a revision in the Conventional Forces in Europe Treaty, and a series of
other agreements (such as the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty and the
Chemical Weapons Convention), designed to further reduce bilateral
threats and limit the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.
(3) These far-reaching agreements were based on the understanding
between the United States and Russia that there would be a good faith
effort on both sides to comply with the letter and spirit of the
agreements.
(4) Reports indicate that Russia has been pursuing construction of a
massive underground facility of unknown purpose at Yamantau Mountain and
the city of Mezhgorye (formerly the settlements of Beloretsk 15 and
Beloretsk 16) that is designed to survive a nuclear war and appears to
exceed reasonable defense requirements.
(5) The Yamantau Mountain project does not appear to be consistent
with the lowering of strategic threats, openness, and cooperation that
is the basis of the post-Cold War strategic partnership between the
United States and Russia.
(6) The United States has allowed senior Russian military and
government officials to have access to key strategic facilities of the
United States by providing tours of the North American Air Defense
(NORAD) command at Cheyenne Mountain and the United States Strategic
Command (STRATCOM) headquarters in Omaha, Nebraska, among other sites,
and by providing extensive briefings on the operations of those
facilities.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that the Russian
government--
(1) should provide to the United States Government a written
explanation with sufficient detail (including drawings and diagrams) of
the purpose and operational concept of the completed and planned
facilities at Yamantau Mountain to support a high confidence judgment by
the United States that the design of the Yamantau facility is consistent
with official Russian government explanations; and
(2) should allow a United States delegation, to include officials of
the executive branch and Members of Congress, to have access to the
Yamantau Mountain project and buildings and facilities surrounding the
project.
SEC. 1228. ASSESSMENT OF THE CUBAN THREAT TO UNITED STATES
NATIONAL SECURITY.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) Cuba has maintained a hostile policy in its relations with the
United States for over 35 years.
(2) The United States, as a sovereign nation, must be able to
respond to any Cuban provocation and defend the people and territory of
the United States against any attack.
(3) In 1994, the Government of Cuba callously encouraged a massive
exodus of Cubans, by boat and raft, toward the United States during
which countless numbers of those Cubans lost their lives on the high
seas.
(4) The humanitarian response of the United States to rescue,
shelter, and provide emergency care to those Cubans, together with the
actions taken to absorb some 30,000 of those Cubans into the United
States, required significant efforts and the expenditure of hundreds of
millions of dollars for the costs incurred by the United States and
State and local governments in connection with those efforts.
(5) On February 24, 1996, Cuban MiG aircraft attacked and destroyed,
in international airspace, two unarmed civilian aircraft flying from the
United States, and the four persons in those unarmed civilian aircraft
were killed.
(6) Since that attack, the Cuban government has issued no apology
for the attack, nor has it indicated any intention to conform its
conduct to international law that is applicable to civilian aircraft
operating in international airspace.
(b) Review and Assessment.--The Secretary of Defense shall carry out
a comprehensive review and assessment of--
(1) Cuban military capabilities; and
(2) the threats to the national security of the United States that
may be posed by Cuba, including--
(A) such unconventional threats as (i) encouragement of massive and
dangerous migration, and (ii) attacks on citizens and residents of the
United States while they are engaged in peaceful protest in
international waters or airspace;
(B) the potential for development and delivery of chemical or
biological weapons; and
(C) the potential for internal strife in Cuba that could involve
citizens or residents of the United States or the Armed Forces of the
United States.
(c) Report.--Not later than March 31, 1998, the Secretary of Defense
shall submit to the Committee on Armed Services of the Senate and the
Committee on National Security of the House of Representatives a report
on the review and assessment. The report shall include the following:
(1) The Secretary's assessment of the capabilities and threats
referred to in subsection (b), including each of the threats described
in paragraph (2) of that subsection.
(2) A discussion of the results of the review and assessment,
including an assessment of the contingency plans developed by the
Secretary to counter any threat posed by Cuba to the United States.
(d) Consultation on Review and Assessment.--In performing the review
and assessment and in preparing the report, the Secretary of Defense
shall consult with the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the
commander of the United States Southern Command, and the heads of other
appropriate departments and agencies of the United States.
